ENLARGiNG A WOUND.
The Delicate Surgical Operation Por
formed In n Cincinnati Hospital

Cincinnati Enquirer.1
The hospital records tcem with instances
of patients whose lives have been saved
by almost miraculous intervention. A
case III point that was dealt with somo
time since was that OF young German,
who WAS struck on the head with q rock
inc;oscd in handkerchief. Under the In
fiucnce of liquor he had engaged in an
alteration with another man, who thus
attempted to defend himself. The blow
must have been struck with terrific forco
from tho effect produced. When admitted
TO the hospital lie was covered with blood
which flowed freely from a small wound
on the right temple. He was yet
conscious, but breathing hard, and
had evidently but n short time 70
last The skull was found to be fractured
beneath the wound, and the broken bone
was depressed and exerted pressure on
the brain. This is one Of the worst wounds
known, and requires immediate interfer-
encc on the part OF tho surgeon. The man
was at first able 10 tell how it happened,
but soon became dclirious and violent, re-
quiring several ricu TO hold him in bed.
he was given ether until Guieted, and
then the wound in the scalp was enlarged
until instruments could be introduced
Carefully the broken pieces OF skull were
removed with pair OF forccps, leaving q
round Opening about as large as
dollar, through which the brain
protruded, and could be seen pulsat-
ing with. each beat OF the heart
Luckily the blow had not injured
this sensitive organ aside from compress
ing it. A long, narrow chiscl was en-
ployed TO trim the ragged edges OF the
opening, and this was where the nice
manipu lation of instruments was seen.
imagine for moment the danger Of tho
situation-wiih q chisel and hammer
cutting away the bone from portion or
the vital center OF man! il one fragment
Of bone had been misplaced, or one blow
Of the hammer been too forcible death
would have cnsucd instantly. The entire
edge of the aperture was thus carefully
GU; away, leaving it as smooth as sand
papere1 surface.
The wound in the scalp was then stitched
up, leaving q little piece Of lint in tho in
cision 10 conduct away the discharge. He
soon fell asleep and thus remained until
the next day, when he awoke, conscious or
II his surroundings AMI recognized his
friends The ward was kept perfectly.
qaiet, ard he was allowed to sleep most Of
the time, being fed on a milk diet. He
complained of headaches at times, but this
gradually disappeared as the incision
closed In two weeks time the scalp had
come together all over the opening, leav-
ing only very slight depression. This,
# course, did not feel as firm as other
parts OF tho head, bat was not tender TO
touch. by allowing his hair to grow n
little long he could effectuaily erase all
evidences OF the accident, and he was dis,
charged from the hospital inside Of a
month from the time Of his entry a well
man.

PROHIBITIONISTS BADLY De
FEATED.
The Amendment Showed Under BY
Fully Fifty Thousand.

Galveston, Texas, Aug. ALI in
terest centered in the prohibition
amendment and the campaign for and
against its ratification was conducted
with great vigor. Never in the his
tory of Texas had such a canvass
been waged. 1t was no party issue.
The ablest men Of both parties We're
arrayed against each other in the
contest, and able men from abroad
took part. The papers of the state
discussed daily for and against un-
til the people from one end to the
other were thoroughly aroused. For
months the question was discussed
from every rostrum and platform in
Texas until the alignment became
sharply drawn and the tension ex-
ceedingly taut.
Between the pros and the ants
each side was confident of victory
to day. The result, however, has
been Waterloo to prohibitionists,
as the returns thus far received indi.
cate that the amendment has been
defeated by majority approximat
ing 10000. All the large towns
gave majorities against it except
Fort Worth which gave majority
of 1913 for.
The election, while hotly contest
ed throughout the state, passed of
quietly, and the best order prevailed
at the polls.

Major D. r. Anthonp, of the Leav-

again. The Kansas people in Wash
ington tell a story that Anthony at
one time, becoming violently angry
at his wife, attempted to pull her
tongue out by the roots. As the
means of getting the better of a
scolding woman this system has the
merit of strength, but the element OF
grace seems to be somehow lacking.
